Welcome to the AFK Journey tier list, which brings together all the best 2024 heroes to use in your composition, in PvP, in PvE, against Dream Realm bosses and in the various game modes. Characters are listed here by rank to highlight their usefulness in the game. So don't hesitate to specialise by taking inspiration from this list based on the current meta.
The game's most powerful heroes need to combine significant buffs or debuffs, sustain, utility and good synergy with other effective characters on the field. Take a look at our AFK Journey tier list of the best heroes for each game mode. What's more, the ranking of the best AFK Journey heroes is organised by rank:
Take this opportunity to update your AFK Journey Wish List with the characters you're missing to optimise your compo!
Each hero on this AFK Journey tier list will be best in one or other of the game modes on offer:
Smokey & Meerky, for example, are excellent in story mode and the Dream Realm, but not necessarily recommended for PvP. Conversely, Hewynn is a fairly average character, but will work wonders in PvP.

Reinier is a highly versatile support debuffer character, capable of applying both defensive and offensive debuffs. He's particularly effective in the Dream Realm, thanks to his unique targeting which allows him to inflict heavy damage on bosses. We also recommend it for story mode and PvP, thanks to its excellent crowd control capabilities. He'll be more and more effective the more he's improved. Clearly the best character on our AFK Journey tier list.
Thoran is quite simply the tank with the greatest damage potential. That's why he's one of the S+ characters in our AFK Journey tier list. He has the advantage of being a self-sufficient hero, who can survive even if your squad doesn't include a healer, thanks to his resurrection ability. On the downside, this ability prevents him from being targeted again by enemies, which could jeopardise the rest of your team.
Odie is without doubt the best DPS in our tier list, simply because he inflicts the most damage on a single target. What's more, he's pretty versatile and is super effective against enemies with low HP. The only downside is that to boost your Odie even more, you'll need his exclusive weapon, which is hard to come by in F2P. But even without it, Odie will be the character who inflicts the most damage in your compo.
The real strength of Smokey & Meerky lies in the constant care they bring to your team. They're an excellent long-term heal option, and we particularly recommend them in the Dream Realm, where battles can be long. Their offensive buffs are also very effective, asthey boost the attack of your other heroes. From a distance, S&M will work wonders. However, they are less effective in PvP.
That's the end of this AFK Journey tier list of the best heroes. Remember to use the tier S+ and S heroes in this ranking as a priority to dominate the game using the current meta! In tiers A and B, you can use these characters by mastering their abilities to the full, which you can discover in Duel de Noblesse mode. And avoid Tier C heroes if you want to win your battles easily!
